For those that don`t know you, what is that you do and how did you become famous in your country?

I had my first television project 7 years ago, when I introduced a weekly news about the Romanian high society. It was an experience from which I learned a lot about working in
television, because for me, that was my first contact with people, with the audience to whom I was addressing, and I learned to receive their reactions whether they were of appreciation and admiration or not. Then I presented several television shows, including a late night show which was actually a live daily marathon with many guests on set, because it was aired from Monday to Thursday, live for two hours. A good period of time, I was involved in two television projects running in parallel.
I have built from scratch a project that I really believe in , that suits me and that I admire its growth with so much pride , the online magazine www.EDAMagazine.ro, I also have a
videoblog – EDA Video Blog and a community of over 2,000,000 friends on Social Media. I have big plans, I like to dream big and create myself a great future. I look forward to transforming all of it into reality, so I can talk about them.

Is it worse to fail at something or never attempt it in the first place?

Yes. I’m the kind of person who tries in every way to solve things, even if this may entail a failure. At least I know I tried … not all goes smoothly and with each mistake, we can only grow. I would rather do my best to do something good with all the risks that derive from it, than live with the regret that I didn’t do everything I could`ve done.

Your name is well known in Romania, and you are being pursued by many young people.
Why should a young person have you as a role model?

I learned from mistakes, I worked for every desire that I fulfilled and I expected my
turn to happiness. I would be honored to know that I inspire others by my daring
projects in which I have succeeded, even if they looked like impossible dreams, by
the respect that I have and I try to show to people who follow me, by my actions
trying to become a better person, more generous, more attentive to others. I am
convinced that only when you can make people less fortunate than you and with no
hope, nor spiritual joy or smile, and make them believe in the feeling of happiness
and tomorrow, you can consider yourself a good example. I love children, old people
and animals. I try to contribute somehow to a better life for them through everything
I do every day. Whatever happens, I promise not to forget that there are people who
have nothing to eat and children who do not have a dream and with just a small
gesture from those around them, can brighten up their lives. I’m the happiest
when I can do that!

Happiness for me is family, love and spiritual satisfaction. I am not the kind of person who
gives too much importance to material things, because they come and go. My soul keeps a
smile on my face and nothing can replace that. I would say that my happiness comes from the happiness of those around me. I charge myself with positive energy when I help people in need, when I give them hope and tell them that everything will be ok, when I can do good to those who have forgotten to smile.
My great regret is that I am short on time and can`t spend more with my parents. They live in another city, and I rarely get to them because of the projects that I have in Bucharest, in Romania or abroad.

Have you done any humanitarian projects? How do you contribute to a better world?

Yes. I got involved in humanitarian projects and I have initiated many charitable causes, but I didn’t make an event out of it. I find it naturally that everyone should do everything they can to make this world a better place.
For several years, I have visited a child that at the age of one and a half suffered facial burns up to 80%. Now he is 6 years old and needs 2-3 surgeries per year. I decided to deal with this case, helping him with everything I can. Along with Dr. Kasem Abu Bakr, I conducted a campaign for Paul and we will help him recover, giving the needed
operations and support in order for him to feel accepted. We want to alleviate suffering and help him be looked at differently by those around him, not like a sick or deformed child. Besides, I was involved in a campaign for autistic children, I cut my hair shorter and donated it to foundations that help cancer patients. And because I love kids very
much, once in awhile I baptize children whose families are without the financial possibilities, and children of people who grew up in orphanages. As a matter of fact, in a month I will baptize a boy who is in this situation.

I like to know I have a big
family in which each of them has their important place.

What one piece of advice would you offer to a teenager? What about to someone your age?

To any person, regardless of age, I recommend earnestly to follow their dream
until it becomes reality, to have hope, to believe in it as it already came true,
to be optimistic and to be a fighter, no matter how hard life is. I am absolutely
aware that life is full of difficulties, but if you have faith in God, you will
overcome everything and get where you want. Surround yourself with positive
people from who you can learn something.

It’s depressing when I see how mean people can be with one another and I cannot understand how can you hate your fellow man when the only thing we should do is support and help each other and form a whole, one heart, one beat. Maybe
I’m an idealist, but I like to think that the day will come when people will realize that love will make all bad disappear.

Romania is a wonderful country with warm and loving people, beautiful places and rich history with customs and traditions that can conquer any tourist from the first sight. The food is one of the strengths of the country where I was born and proudly live in. Any tourist falls in love with our traditional dishes and our hospitality. I love Romania
and the people who live here. The sights are memorable and the picturesque landscapes can revive the soul of the most insensitive person.

The song that defines me is a song composed and sung by Speak – called “By chance”, not just because he is my boyfriend, nor because I’m the lead character in the video, but because it is a beautiful song that to me, it feels like it “speaks” of how I am. It is a piece made about love and romance.

Now that’s a challenge. I never thought about it, but I can do an exercise of imagination. Since I actually adore Rihanna, I think I could call her
“Mommy” :))
I have a lot to learn from her. The role of a father might successfully go to Wentworth Miller from the TV show called “Prison Break”, because not only he is a very good actor, especially since he starred in my favorite show, but also has blue eyes that I could`ve inherited :)) The combination of olive skin from “mother” Rihanna and Wenthworth`s eyes, I would result as a super sexy, exotic
mulatto.
